So many kids who'll be traumatized by Superman crushing more innocent bystanders...
Today kids would probably yell "Awesome!"So many kids who'll be traumatized by Superman crushing more innocent bystanders...
I SO want this to do great at the B.O. We need more DC movies. Maybe we'll get Animal Man, Swamp Thing and more too in future?!
Man of Steel's action was boring as shit.
I recall reading WB was internally projecting the OW to be somewhere between Age of Ultron and Avengers 1. IMO, this thing could be a Catwoman quality film and still open over $150M.
Man of Steel did really well on home video. It's not a movie that was disliked by most despite what people here seem to think.
OK but what if I had left out the last paragraph, would you have taken me seriously
Same thing. Distinguishable contrast. Just harder to lampshade their flaws beyond "too powerful" or "too many dead parents," respectively
I think it's an internet thing
By most metrics, this is probably the 2nd most anticipated film of the year behind Rogue One.
And EVERYTHING around this movie generates conversation (good or bad), the article in the OP even notes that social engagement spiked this week with talks of the r-Rated version
idk. I think Civil War might have it beat.
Part of me still hopes that Marvel/Sony is just waiting to unleash Spidey marketing for Civil War right around the time BvS comes out.
I just picture Marvel in their offices waiting for the 25th like:That wouldn't stop anyone from seeing BvS though, lol. What would even be the point of that?

I'm not saying it would stop people from seeing BvS. I'm saying it would be a baller move to get everyone talking about Civil War during BvS's opening weekend.
Or the smarter thing to do is attach a trailer with a glimpse of Spidey to BvS
Swamp Thing was rumored to be part of the Justice League Dark movie. Animal Man is a stretch. I don't even know how you would sell that, the two runs I've read wouldn't work well in a blockbuster movie.
could they even do that? wouldn't WB have some say in that?
This is gonna do numbers
Dont think it looks great but def seeing it.

They don't control all trailer slots, just some.
Hell of a lot easier to make an Animal Man movie than a Cyborg movie...
and Ben Affleck started trending on pornhub.It's hard to compare since they are doing diff things, but take for example
The Turkish Airlines commercials for BvS bested the SuperBowl commercial for Civil War (Youtube views)... and that actually showed footage from the movie.

I don't follow. He's black robocop. Adapting it doesn't seem daunting at all
Hmm. That might work if BvS is bad to mediocre but BvS has pretty much slaughtered Civil War in activity whenever the two get brought up close to each other. While I have no doubt CW will be amazing it just doesn't quite have that "event" feel going for it.
But that could be just because the marketing hasn't really kicked in yet. I doubt Marvel would want to throw out Spider while the hype is high for BvS. That just isn't smart. You do that when it's calm so everyone pays attention to it and you get the most buzz.
really depends on what there is more hype for. MCU Spider-man or Batman v Superman which honestly I could see going either way but hell look at my avatar, I'm biased
Oh I can't tell I'm on mobile at the moment and have avatars turned off.![]()

I think BvS, first time we see these two on the big screen together, also DC going for the shared universe, a new Batman which from what we hear and see seems to be the best thus far etc. And we just had a Spiderman movie people didn't seem to like (I actually liked it) and I could see people getting kinda sick of him with another reboot (not the fans, but a portion of the GA). And we haven't seen anything from him so there is that.
That being said, I do think people are more positive about the new Spiderman. BvS just seems so divisive already, just imagine when the movie is released.

I'm not sure if the general public knows about Spidey being in CW. Its marketing has been pretty lackluster imo, which is a shame because it's the kind of movie Marvel should have made since the beginning.you're probably right that there's more hype for BvS than MCU spider-man but I think the general audience is more in the know about Marvel and character rights and all that stuff than people give them credit for. People know Spider-man being able to mix with Cap and Tony is a big deal

Robocop with none of the stuff that makes robocop cool

Batman and Superman are best when it's colorful optimistic All-Star boy scout vs. gruff super-serious Miller antihero. We need a movie from both of their perspectives, deconstructing them a bit from each side but still making us appreciate the other's traits in contrast.

I'm probably going to wrong here and I know most won't agree with me. But I personally think it's going to have a killer opening weekend but have a relatively big drop off the following week. I know I'm probably wrong but that's just what I think.
I'm 99% certain a new civil war trailer will be attached to BvS, and a new squad trailer with Civil War.

A Jaime Reyes Blue Beetle movie would be my greatest desire
I doubt it. No matter what people will say, BvS is direct competition for Marvel. No doubt a lot of butts will already be there for BvS alone, but a CW trailer would definitely drive a few more butts to the theater. I give the trailer a 50/50 shot at showing up.
